It’s time to get back to the discussion of the health compounders.
Previously I wrote about the Spirit or Emotional Intelligence Quotient. (EQ) I also mentioned the Body or Physical Intelligence Quotient (PQ) briefly. Being a personal trainer this is an area of focus so I couldn’t help skipping forward a little.
Of the 4 health compounders (besides sleep) there are 2 more: What I call Special Focus and Mind or Mental Intelligence Quotient. (IQ)
Because Special Focus requires fully understanding the other 3 health compounders we will be covering that last.
So what is Mind? How do you take care of your mind? What if I don’t consider myself very smart? What then? And why even bother with these health compounders anyways?
I believe that every success in the physical world transpires in the invisible. Change is much like the metamorphosis of the caterpillar to butterfly. It’s what’s invisible to the eye... The unconscious is where healthy change first takes place. This is the blueprint indelibly marked.
From ones spirit that impulse travels to the brain in the form of thought solidifying in the form of specific beliefs and mental habit. It’s the programs we run that are running front of mind but more than naught in the background.
Mindfulness is the practice of being ones self into the present. Ground ones self with the heat and now. I believe that mindfulness is the key. Awareness is the second step.
Next the mind transfers the spirits drive to the action potential of the body and that is where physical results are realized.
You see... it’s all a kinetic chain. If you want physical aesthetic lasting results you have got to take your Spiritual and Mental health seriously.
So let’s begin our talk about ways/activities that you can do to sharpen the mind!
Not only will it built resiliency I think that concentrating on mental health and acuity is of vital importance especially as this current pandemic runs its course.
Follow along and we will go deeper on the subject of Mind Health. By the time your done reading about each of the health compounders you will be able to do a full lifestyle assessment on yourself. Not only that... this is also useful as a frame work to understanding how people tick, why they do what they do, and how to motivate yourself to actually physically manifest the change you want.
See you in my next report!
